A Khmer culinary herb. ម្អមក្ដាម or ម្អមស្រែ (Limnophila Aromatica). Commonly known as Rice Paddy. A Store-bought herb meant cooking but I saved bottom cuttings for propagation. No more hour drive to Asian market for this herb. The Khmers used it to garnish just a handful of dishes known to be peasant style dishes. In memory of my great-grandparents, a dish they called Drei-Gobb. A concoction of tiny fishes and shrimps dry rubbed with lemongrass paste. A consists of Lemongrass, Kaffir lime leave, Galangal, Tumeric, hot chili, and garlic. Lastly, Rice Paddy herbs for aromatic, and green tamarind as a sour agent, than wrapped in banana or Lotus leave and baked in hot ash/Amber. This cooking method requires no cookware.

ជីរឆ្អាប, ឬ ជីរថ្ពាល់ត្រី, ឬ ជីរដំឡូង, ឬ ជីរស្លឹកម្លូរ. Fish Mint (Houttuynia Cordata & H. Emeiensis). I grow different variations of Houttuynia genus in my garden for culinary purpose. Which one is H. Cordata and which is H. Emeiensis? Well, the two varieties have the same tastes and aromatic scents.
